/* Defining the Physical Structure in EM.Ferma */
In EM.Ferma, materials and sources are all listed under the "Physical Structure" section of the navigation tree. In other words, there is no separate "Sources" section. For example, you can define default zero-potential perfect electric conductors (PEC) in your project to model metal objects. You can also define fixed-potential PEC objects with a nonzero voltage, which can effectively act as a voltage source for your boundary value problem. In this case, you will solve the Lapalce equation subject to the specified nonzero potential boundary values. Both types of PEC objects are defined from the same PEC node of the navigation tree by assigning different voltage values. Charge and current sources are defined as CAD objects, and you have to draw them in the project workspace just like other material objects.
 
=== Variety of Material and Source Objects ===
 
EM.Ferma offers the following types of material and source objects to construct your physical structure for electrostatic or magnetostatic simulation:
 
* Fixed-Potential Perfect Electric Conductor (PEC) Objects
* Fixed-Potential Perfect Electric Conductor (PEC) Objects
* Dielectric/Magnetic Materials
* Volume Charge Charges
* Wire Currents
* Volume Currents
* Permanent Magnets
 
All the objects belonging to the same group share the same properties including color and electric or magnetic [[parameters]].
